As someone who hangs out in Jossverse, I'm really in favor of the thread repurposing. I was going to suggest it myself.
I'm really disliking the "Other Realms" name, though.
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'm with Tom. Welcome repurposing. Leave the title alone, and just change the slug.

I'm all for repurposing, but I'd rather go through the process. It doesn't take long, on this issue it'll probably be relatively painless, and I don't want to set a precedent of "We can ignore the process if it looks like it's something everyone wants to do." I know the repurposing isn't a huge change, but it is a change.

We've repurposed other threads without a vote. Buffy Quotable turned into a deathmatch thread, which extended but changed its original function. We would merely be making official what has always been a part of the Jossiverse thread culture.

Our wings are not tired.
Did we really allow the chick in FLORIDA to count our votes??
Who knew there would be so many voters in favor of the all gay all nekkid thread?

I know. I'm just a little iffy on making an official change without going through the procedure we agreed on for making official changes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Changing the slug doesn't seem like it would warrant a vote to me. Maybe if I saw more objections to the idea, but I haven't yet.

I like the idea of retaining the name (at least while this thread is still alive) and just changing the slug.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ok, if that's what we had gotten in 2000, no one would be mad at your state.
